Is AdGuard for Android pointless since it uses a VPN slot?

So this is what I’m thinking and correct me if I’m wrong. While I agree that being less fingerprintable is ideal, what is the cost to doing so? You already mentioned the consequence that I’m facing, and I don’t disagree with you! However, even if I try to do what you say and blend in, there are no guarantees that the website still doesn’t identify me. We don’t know what they know. We’re only guessing. So I think it’s a worthwhile tradeoff to use my own custom DNS settings and get a benefit out of it, even if it makes me more identifiable. At the end of the day, let’s say I’m able to block an ad, and they know it’s me. What’s the worst that will come out of it? I mean, the website is trying to show me an ad. The data they gather on me is what they’re trying to monetize. If I don’t see the ad, what good is the data they have on me? It’s not like they have identifiable information on me since I’m not logged in.
